This is called "Saba no Misoni" in Japanese and is one of the most common home cooked meals in Japan! Try this delicious fish dish :-) Note: Do not turn the mackerel when boiling to avoid destroying the shape.

1

Remove the head and innards from the mackerels and wash with water. Dry with kitchen paper. Make a cross cut on both sides.
2

Put all the # ingredients into a pot. Once it boils, put in the mackerel with lid on. Boil for a while on a medium to high heat. Occasionally shake the pot to ensure the mackerels are covered with sauce.
3

While boiling the mackerel, make the miso sauce. Mix all * ingredients well.
4

When the sauce is nearly gone, and the mackerels are well cooked, pour the miso sauce on the mackerels and shake the pot to cover everything. Once it comes to a boil again, it's done!
